Update: Sadness–to an extent

So today has been a whirlwind for me already, and that’s never a good thing for my anxiety, but I’ve got work today and should fight through whatever emotions I have inside me that want to pour out.

With that said, I’m still reflecting on my poor decision, but today sort of made matters worse.

When I woke today I got a call from my dad–no more than five minutes after waking–and was told my aunt passed away in her sleep (so I hope it wasn’t painful).

Yeah, it’s fucking great….

While I didn’t know her well (I only met her a few times), it still hurts like getting hit repeatedly with a concrete block to the chest.

Family has always been the most important aspect of my life, and always will be–it’s what made me into who I am today, so I consider family #1 and always will.

But, I’ve decided that I’ll cope how I always have and write. That means reviews and the start of that new series I have planned. I’m not sure how much I’m going to be able to get done, but I’ll do what I can.

With that said, expect some posts from me again as I run head-first into my most prized coping mechanism.

No idea if there is going to be a funeral or visitation for my aunt, but I’m sure I’ll find out soon.
